George W. Bush's Past work experience:

1. Ran for congress and lost. GEE, MOST POLITICIANS HAVE LOST CAMPAIGNS

2. Produced a Hollywood slasher B movie. DOCUMENTATION?

3. Bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas, company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. OIL EXPLARATION COMPANIES ARE RISKY VENTURES. ANY DOCUMENTATION FOR THE STOCK CHARGE?

4. Bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using tax-payer money. Biggest move: Traded Sammy Sosa to the Chicago Cubs. BUSH WAS PART OF A GROUP OF INVESTORS, AND HELPED TO PULL TOGETHER THE REMAINING FINANCING. FOR THIS, HE WAS REWARDED WITH EXTRA SHARES, AND MADE MANAGING PARTNER. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO PROOF THAT HE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CONTROVERSIAL EMINENT DOMAIN DECISIONS MADE BY THE CITY TO BUILD THE NEW STADIUM. ON THE OTHER HAND, HE IS WIDELY CREDITTED WITH MAKING THE TEAM SUFFICIENTLY PROFITABLE THAT IT SOLD AT A HIGH PRICE.

5. With fathers help (and his name) was elected Governor of Texas. AND JACK KENNEDY BECAME SENATOR AND PRESIDENT WITH HIS FATHER'S HELP, AND FDR WAS HELPED BY HIS LAST NAME TO BECOME PRESIDENT, AND JOHN QUINCY ADAMS WAS HELPED BY HIS FATHER AND HIS NAME, AND SO WHAT?

6. Accomplishments- Changed pollution laws for power and oil companies and made Texas the most polluted state in the Union. Replaced Los Angeles with Houston as the most smog ridden city in America. Cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas
government to the tune of billions in borrowed money. DOCUMENT?

7. Set record for most executions by any Governor in American history. IF SO, WERE THEY DULY CONVICTED?

8. Became president after losing the popular vote by over 500,000 votes, with the help of my fathers appointments to the Supreme Court. HIS FATHER DID NOT APPOINT THREE OF THE JUSTICES RULING IN HIS FAVOR.

Accomplishments as president--

1. Attacked and took over two countries. GOSH, FDR AND TRUMAN ATTACKED AND TOOK OVER MANY MORE COUNTRIES. SORRY THAT DUBYA IS RUNNING BEHIND.

2. Spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury. WE ARE NOWHERE NEAR BANKRUPT, AND THE SURPLUS WAS DOOMED WHEN THE ECONOMY TANKED.

3. Shattered record for biggest annual deficit in history. DOCUMENTATION (IN CONSTANT DOLLARS).

4. Set economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12 month period. DOCUMENTATION?

5. Set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market. THE STOCK MARKET TANKED BEFORE HE WAS ELECTED.

6. First president in decades to execute a federal prisoner. WAS THE PERSON DULY CONVICTED?

7. First president in US history to enter office with a criminal record. ARE YOU SURE THAT NO ONE ELSE HAD A TICKET? AFTER ALL, HE WAS FINED FOR DUI, WHICH IN MAINE IS A MISDEMEANOR. AT LEAST HE KILLED NO ONE, UNLIKE TED KENNEDY.

8. First year in office set the all-time record for most days on vacation by any president in US history. IF THAT IS SO, IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT THEY WERE WORKING VACATIONS, AND HE OFTEN HAD FOREIGN GUESTS TO THE RANCH FOR MEETINGS.

9. After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, presided over the worst security failure in US history. WORSE THAN PEARL HARBOR?

10. Set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips than any other president in US history. I AM NOT SURE HE BEATS CLINTON FOR FUNDRAISING, BUT IF SO, GOOD FOR HIM, WE WON THE CONGRESS BACK.

11. In my first two years in office over 2 million Americans lost their job. HOW MANY PEOPLE LOST THEIR JOBS IN FDR'S FIRST TWO YEARS IN OFFICE?

12. Cut unemployment benefits for more out of work Americans than any president in US history. DOCUMENTATION?

13. Set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12 month period. DOCUMENTATION?

14. Appointed more convicted criminals to administration positions than any president in US history. DOCUMENTATION?

15. Set the record for the least amount of press conferences than any president since the advent of television. GOOD FOR HIM.

16. Signed more laws and executive orders amending the Constitution than any president in US history. GEE, I THOUGHT THAT WAS CLINTON. DOCUMENTATION?

17. Presided over the biggest energy crises in US history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed. GEE, MOST OF THAT OCCURED ON CLINTON'S WATCH, AND WAS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA ANYWAY.

18. Presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused to use the national reserves as past presidents have. OH NO, A FREE MARKETEER!

19. Cut healthcare benefits for war veterans. DOCUMENTATION?

20. Set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously take to the streets to protest me (15 million people), shattering the record for
protest against any person in the history of mankind. hyperreal.org JUST GOES TO SHOW, THERE ARE A LOT OF JERKS OUT THERE.

21. Dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history. WHAT INTERNATIONAL TREATIES THAT HAD BEEN RATIFIED DID HE DISSOLVE? OF THOSE DISSOLVED, WAS IT DONE IN ACCORD WITH TERMINATION PROVISION IN THE DOCUMENT?

22. My presidency is the most secretive and un-accountable of any in US history. DOCUMENTATION?

23. Members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in US history. (the 'poorest' multi-millionaire, Condoleeza Rice has an Exxon oil tanker named after her). OH NO, A CABINET FULL OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE!

24. First president in US history to have all 50 states of the Union simultaneously go bankrupt. WHICH STATES HAVE GONE BANKRUPT? I DO NOT RECALL ANY.

33. Withdrew from the International Criminal Court. REFUSED TO CONCEDE JURISDICTION, YES, THANK GOD.

34. Refused to allow inspectors access to US prisoners of war and by default no longer abide by the Geneva Conventions. THOSE ARE NOT PRISONERS OF WAR, AS DEFINED BY THE GENEVA CONVENTION.

35. First president in US history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 US elections). WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU BABBLING ABOUT?

36. All-time US (and world) record holder for most corporate campaign donations. DOCUMENTATION?

37. My biggest life-time campaign contributor presided over one of the largest corporate bankruptcy frauds in world history (Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation). DOCUMENTATION?

38. Spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in US history. MORE THAN CLINTON? DOCUMENTATION, PLEASE?

39. First president in US history to unilaterally attack a sovereign nation against the will of the United Nations and the world community. WE DID NOT UNILATERALLY ATTACK A SOVEREIGN NATION. WE HAD MORE THAN 3 DOZEN ALLIES AT THE TIME. ALSO, WE HAD THE VOTE IN THE SECURITY COUNCIL, UNTIL FRANCE DETERMINED TO VETO THE NEW RESOLUTION, WHICH CAUSED OUR WEAKER SUPPORTERS TO DECIDE TO ABSTAIN. THAT IS WHY WE IGNORED THE VOTE.

40. First president to run and hide when the US came under attack (and then lied saying the enemy had the code to Air Force 1). PROVE IT.

41. First US president to establish a secret shadow government. PROVE IT.

45. First US president in history to have the people of South Korea more threatened by the US than their immediate neighbor, North Korea. WHAT, BECAUSE SOME DUMB DEMONSTRATORS SAID SO?

46. Changed US policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts. TELL ME MORE.

47. Set all-time record for number of administration appointees who violated US law by not selling huge investments in corporations bidding for government contracts. TELL ME MORE.

48. Failed to fulfill my pledge to get Osama Bin Laden 'dead or alive'. GIVE ME A BREAK.

49. Failed to capture the anthrax killer who tried to murder the leaders of our country at the United States Capital building. After 18 months I have no leads and zero suspects. YOU MUST BE KIDDING.

50. In the 18 months following the 911 attacks I have successfully prevented any public investigation into the biggest security failure in the history of the
United States. THERE HAS BEEN PLENTY OF INVESTIGATION, LEADING TO CHANGES IN PROCEDURE IN SEVERAL AGENCIES.

51. Removed more freedoms and civil liberties for Americans than any other president in US history. MORE THAN LINCOLN'S SUSPENSION OF HABEUS CORPUS? DOCUMENTATION?

52. In a little over two years created the most divided country in decades, possibly the most divided the US has ever been since the civil war. THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF PEOPLE SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT.

53. Entered office with the strongest economy in US history and in less than two years turned every single economic category heading straight down. THE ECONOMY BEGAN TO TANK BEFORE HE WAS ELECTED.

I COMMENTED ON THE OBVIOUSLY WRONG ITEMS, AND ASKED FOR DOCUMENTATION FOR THOSE THINGS THAT ARE DUBIOUS. REMEMBER, DOCUMENTATION MEANS SHOWING THAT BUSH IS (WHATEVER) MORE THAN ANY OTHER IN OUR HISTORY, ETC.
